Drain Cleaning & Reliable Sewer Service
Solutions That Keep Your Home Flowing
If slow drains or backups are disrupting your day, our drain cleaning Fallston NC team is ready to help. Badger Plumbing provides complete sewer services in Fallston—from clearing clogs to full sewer repair—so sinks, showers, and toilets run the way they should. Locals from Lawndale to Belwood rely on us for quick diagnostics, honest estimates, and workmanship that stands up to daily use.
Signs It’s Time to Call a Pro
Look out for gurgling toilets, slow drains in multiple fixtures, foul odors near floor drains, or wet spots in the yard. In Shelby and nearby neighborhoods along Highway 18, these symptoms often point to a main line issue—roots, bellies, or breaks that need immediate attention. Early intervention saves money, protects your yard, and prevents messy backups inside.
Sewer Camera Inspections
A live video view inside your line helps us locate blockages, cracks, and root intrusions without unnecessary digging.
Hydro Jetting & Drain Cleaning
High-pressure water scours pipes clean, removing grease, scale, and roots so flow is restored.
Sewer Line Repair & Replacement
When damage goes beyond a clog, we handle excavation and install new drain lines to code.
How Our Drain & Sewer Process Works
How do I schedule and what info do you need?
Call980-403-5859or send a message with your address, a brief description of the issue (slow drains, gurgling, backup), and when it started. We’ll confirm a time window for Fallston, Shelby, Lawndale, Belwood, or nearby neighborhoods and text when we’re on the way.
What should I do before the plumber arrives?
Clear the area around likely access points—under sinks, around floor drains, and near your exterior cleanout cap if you have one. Please keep pets secured and let us know about any locked gates or special parking along Highway 18 or in tighter drives.
How do you diagnose a drain or sewer problem?
We start with questions about symptoms and a visual inspection. If the cause isn’t obvious, we recommend a sewer camera inspection to see inside the line, record depth and location, and identify the exact fix before anyone digs or snakes blindly.
When do you use hydro jetting vs. a cable (snake)?
Light, simple clogs may clear with a cable. Heavy grease, scale, or roots typically call for hydro jetting, which scours the pipe wall clean so the fix lasts longer. We’ll explain which approach fits your line and why—no guesswork.
Will I get pricing before work starts?
Yes. We provide an upfront written estimate so you know the plan and cost. Our standard rate is $125 per hour for service work; larger projects (like section repairs or replacements) are quoted as a clear line-item proposal for your approval.
Will my water be shut off?
For most drain work, no. If repairs involve your main water line or we’re preventing backflow during a severe backup, we may pause water use temporarily and restore it as soon as testing is complete.
Do you work on septic tanks?
We do not pump or service septic tanks. We do repair and replace the pipes leading to a septic system or the municipal sewer, including diagnostics, cleaning, and line replacement where needed.
Clear Pricing & Specialized Equipment
From simple clogs to complex sewer repair in Fallston, you’ll get a written estimate with upfront pricing before work starts. Our specialized jetting rigs and inspection cameras—tools many local contractors don’t carry—let us pinpoint issues quickly and keep excavation to a minimum. It’s the efficient, respectful way to restore your system and your yard.
When It Can’t Wait
Sewer backups and major clogs don’t keep business hours. If you’re facing an urgent issue in Fallston, Shelby, or Double Shoals, call for after-hours help. We’ll guide you on shutting off fixtures and arrive ready to stabilize the situation.
